DaSuperHero2s 2010 premiership ladder and a brief look at teams -
Broncos
Ivan a year smarter , his men a year smarter , the class of his players a year more experienced ,boast a classy side , lost Hodges and cutie , this will dry there attack for a good while , Ive never seen coach Henjak have to deal with major injury yet , especially if lockyer goes down , coach proved he cannot handle the origin period and will lose some games and momentum there , home ground a graveyard for most , also loss of Tonnie Carrol and Taylor will not help there stocks.
Key Personnel- Simms , Kenny & Parker , whatever happens on the field for the broncos these boys need to really take a stand and move forward the rest will follow , if they dont fire no on else can.
To Beat this team , Arm wrestle team , keep at it for the first 20mins , whilst doing this do not try and blow them off the park as they play for 80 mins just play direct and kick deep
Predicted Finish 8th
Dogs
Coming off a remarkable year for the Canterbury club , solid set off dominating forwards and backs , this team loves to defend the dogs of war will be hard to go past in most games especially if there attack starts to click early , Kimmorley will not be as good as he has been last year ,lost the games best sharpshooter games will be closer this year , but once again , this is one of the best clubs of the decade in the grind em out mentality , have signed well with Paea , who can be a destroying runner and turner is good depth.
Key Personel Kimmorley and Idris need to strike up something special this year , really special if it is to work for the boys from Canterbury
To beat this team ,Run around there forwards and get in early on their big men , tire these boys out of the game
Predicted Finish 6th
Raiders
Strong set of forwards the green machine boasts this year, superb home ground advantage and coach Furner will be better , depth a problem , have lost a few of their key players , any major injury to this squad and there in real trouble
Key Personel Terry Campese , Josh Dugan , One lead from the back , one lead from the front
To beat this team holding the ball and letting raiders excerpt all their energy , keep tackling and let them submit themselves
Predicted Finish 12th
Cowboys
Will be better then last year , but I dont see any room in the 8 for them , travelling away from home they just dont want to play ,Have a team with JT , but lack quality forwards only O Donnel is there Webb Southern and there sorta blokes must be on song , sometimes they dont even whisper , superb coach though
Key Personnel - Willie is on everyones lips down there but the question is whats on willies lips a real desire or drama marred times ahead?
To beat this team Pressure Aaron Payne and JT , focus on them and contain Donnell , the rest will come.
Predicted finish 10th
Eagles
Not much movement for the peninsula this year , the loss of the ox is not as great as its made out to be , OK side across the park though if there strike machine is out expect them to tumble , will hurt and upset a few teams with a genuine home ground advantage
Key Personnel
The Stewart Bros and the Halves , if both of the Stewarts are playing they need to fire and be at their best for the Warringah boys to have a shot at the 8 , also need a gel a genuine halves combo , Lyon is not the right man for this position
To beat this squad Keep kicking the ball out or dead , make them restart everytime
Predicted finish 14th
Storm Up high again , strong home ground advantage real tight knit football , genuine superstars , have bought well and will have good depth , hard hitting forwards and classy backs not much more you can ask for.
Key Personnel C.Smith if he plays well the team does , if he doesnt the team doesnt , premiership relies on this bloke , he is up to it though.
To beat them Slow down there play the balls , kick dead , play one out and direct alternatively hit cam smith with everything
Predicted finish 2nd
Knights Will hurt a few teams this year but not enough to send them into the 8 , fortress is no more and a general lack of real class on the field , if Gidley is injured there in real trouble , he stops a lot of tries for these blokes
Key Personnel-Isaac De Gois & Gidley , these two need to play with each other and play well , so well that there team balances out and edges of these two men.
To beat them Blow them off the park , hammer and rip in for the first 15 with everything you got
Predicted finish 13th
Eels have signed brilliantly, superb depth , superb squad , not a fan of the coach and will lose a few games due to his open style , the eels are not known for an arm wrestle but will have gained plenty of knowledge about it from last years gf , lots of genuine RL players in this squad who when they click will go into a special element of their own , good year ahead for Parramatta.
Key Personnel Mateo and Mortimer , they need to be on their game everything else will take its place with the class in this team
To beat Parramatta Encourage them to offload and get ready to belt whoever receives the ball , bomb this team high all day long and kick at growth everyday of the week
Predicted Finish 4th
Penrith - Mat Elliot is a good coach , good set of forwards who will back themselves Penrith is a good place for RL and a good home advantage, the squad is strong , some of their key smaller boys have put weight on , times are looking up for the Penrith but have lost there hooker Aiton , I dont think they realize the Importance of him as a player
Key Personnel-Last years littler men , theyve grown bigger stronger and faster this year , watch out for these men , there on the rise
To beat them ,Blow them off the park with big runs big hits and wide running in the first quarter of the game
Predicted finish is 7th
Sharks Wobbly around the park if they need a leader theyve got one , if the leader goes down where to next? Have signed some players that will do nothing , (cue), Aiton although will be class , Ricky had to make up for his blunder of losing De gois , Dean Collis set for a big year and Blake Ferguson on the rise , they need to start actually seeing Cronulla as a home ground and using it that way , there record there is starting to really shake
Key Personnel- Douglas & Snowden Cronullas force , they fire Cronulla will be in the games , they dont well you can assume the rest , they need to change Barrets role and also make sure Scott Porter is playing
To beat them whatever speed they set at the start , grind away with them , they cant keep there speed all game
Predicted finish 11th
Souths Superb Forward pack , Fast backline a new coach a new British inport that is probably the best player in his country ,the 10k mark just upon us , Souths are on the rise and fast, this team will hurt you If you dont turn up to play , Sandow will take control this year and Sutton will go close to representing , I wouldnt want to be running at this forward pack
Key Personal the halves if they fire , everything else will sit in place nicely
To beat them run at the big men all day long , no need for big hits or collisions keep running at them get there tackle counts high and keep forcing them back then attack the outside
Predicted finish 3rd
Saints Strong Forwards , Classy Backs , a wealth of experience gained after last year, Bennet , strong depth and will have practiced attack in the offseason till the cows came home
Key Personel Jamie Soward & Hornby they cannot win the title based on Hornby at Halfback , will have to rectify this

To beat them Kick deep grind away and let them do what they have to , to get out of there red zone
Predicted finish 15th
Warriors
Solid across the park , superb full back but a coach to be desired , not very good once theyve crossed the Tasman and a early war with the Warriors puts them off them games most of the time , they havent recruited to well but depth is strong , need a outstanding effort from all players to go anywhere this year
KeyPersonel- Wade McKinnon needs to apply himself and inject himself as much as humanely possible
To beat them encourage offloading all day long , another team if you grind away will drop off sooner or later
Predicted 16th
West Tigers
Excellent recruitment , with an already talented line up , very attacking style side , with finesse on every part of the park , Tim Sheens will take care of this side very well , super home ground advantage , everything is on the way up with this club
Key Personnel-Robbie Farah he fires the the whole club will play its natural football and fire
To beat them Attack the centre of the park , hitting holes and making holes then run the outside backrowers running at the backs in these clashes are of utmost importance
